Inreach

InReach (fka ‘AsylumConnect’) is a trans-led 501(c)(3) tech nonprofit increasing resource access for the diverse LGBTQ+ community. InReach has built the world’s first open source platform matching LGBTQ+ people facing persecution or discrimination with safe, verified resources (‘InReach App’). The InReach App is available on web (desktop and mobile), and native iOS and Android. InReach’s open source technology instantly matches LGBTQ+ people in need with independently verified, safe housing, medical and mental health care, immigration and other legal help, meal assistance, education and employment, translation, community and spiritual support, and more. InReach serves as a comprehensive digital one-stop-shop for the diverse, intersectional LGBTQ+ community: InReach lists verified services for LGBTQ+ asylum seekers, refugees and other immigrants, BIPOC communities, TGNC folks, youth and caregivers, and more LGBTQ+ communities. The InReach App is free for everyone – including lawyers, case managers, social workers, teachers, and other providers and community organizations searching for affirming resource referrals for LGBTQ+ clients. The InReach App currently lists over 9,000 services across North America independently verified to be safe for the diverse LGBTQ+ community, with new verified services being added every day by trained volunteers. Since launching in 2016, the free InReach App has had over 450,000 user sessions. Our vision is for every LGBTQ+ person to have on-demand access to the safe, affirming resources they need to thrive.
